Choice BED Quilt.

Choice Bed Quilt.
Speaking Of bed quilts, Adjutant Van
Solver has in his possession bed quilt
which is certainly worth owning, and is
historical In its nature. During his boy
hood and prior to that, each Summer Jas.
Callahan and wife, Of Washington, d. c.,
visited his fathers house and spent sever
al weeks In recreation. Mr.. Callahan had
been employed in the government service
for years and his wife assisted in the up
holstering at the White House. In her
yearly visits she would bring samples OF
the curtains made and upholstering done
in all covering period of twenty years at
least. These pieces were saved, and his
grandm other when in her eightieth year,
placed them into quilt. She died at the
age of ninety-six and left the quilt un.
finished. His mother finished it. and
since his marriage presented the quilt to
himself and wife, and il is priced by
them, not so much for its beauty, as for
its history.

for loss of sheep killed by dogs during
the past year, at the appraised value Of the

This community has cause to be sad
over the death of Mr.. William II. Fulper,
proprietor Of the large brick store oppo-
site the Court House, Pennington, which
occurred at an sarly hour last Saturday
morning. For nearly year and half
deceased had been sufferer from the eff
fects Of an aneurism which formed on q
blood vessel leading from the heart to the
throat. The best medical skill was un-
able to give more than temporary relief,
and at last the trouble resulted fatally.
Mr.. Fulper was one of the most enterpris-
ing and successful merchants in the
county. He began business for himself
when not moro than twenty. one years of
age, and nature seemed to especially
qualify him for the mercantile trade.
Less than AZ years of age, he has been cut
off, and an affectionate wife aud children
are left to mourn the loss of the good hus-
band and father. Funeral services on
Wednesday afternoon. Hunterdon Dem
